This Toddler Trying Pizza For The First Time Is All Of Us

One dad’s tweet about his daughter’s reaction to pizza is going viral

If you’ve ever tucked into a pizza with complete and utter abandon (and let’s be real, who hasn’t?), you’ll appreciate this toddler’s epic reaction to her first taste of pizza.

Dad Jody Avirgan, host of the FiveThirtyEight podcast, tweeted a picture of his daughter’s sublime reaction to pizza over the weekend and it immediately went viral — proving that pizza really is the issue that brings America together.

The image features Avirgan’s toddler daughter with her arms raised, eyes closed, face smeared with sauce, having herself a freaking moment with her new favorite meal. Can we get an hallelujah?

In and amongst all of the pizza love, Avirgan had a few words for Chicago-style pizza lovers — and depending on your pizza preferences, they may be fighting words.

(While I appreciate the love this is getting I notice that a few Chicago pizza shops have tweeted it and I’d like to take this opportunity to remind you that whatever it is you’re subjecting your customers to — it’s not real pizza)
